GoldenEar SuperSub X Is Now Shipping

GoldenEar Technology has announced that its SuperSub X subwoofer, first introduced back at CES, is now officially shipping. The SuperSub X (and its big brother, the SuperSub XXL) employs GoldenEar's patented Dual-Plane Inertially Balanced technology to more effectively move the air and distribute the bass response evenly around the room. The SuperSub X houses two eight-inch long-throw drivers in the horizontal plane and two 10.5- x 9.5-inch planar infrasonic radiators in the vertical plane, driven by a 1,400-watt amp. Roughly a 12.5-inch cube, the SuperSub X features a glossy, piano-black lacquer finish and sells for $1,249.

From GoldenEarGoldenEar's new SuperSub X is a smaller version of the award winning SuperSub XXL. It also incorporates GoldenEar's unique and patented Dual-Plane Inertially Balanced Technology. This force-cancelling inertial balancing preserves, conserves and focuses all the energy produced by the transducers in order to more effectively move the air in the room (rather than vibrating and shaking the cabinet). Also, because there are four radiating surfaces that are separated in space, the driver-to-room coupling and bass response is distributed much more smoothly.

This advanced technology results in absolutely the finest sounding ultra-compact subwoofer ever produced; clearly the holy grail: combining superb musicality with extreme extension and room-shaking impact. GoldenEar has been awarded a US Patent for its breakthrough Dual-Plane Inertially Balanced Technology. The SuperSub X is now shipping. The U.S. retail price is $1,249 each.
